Pixologic Releases Sculptris! (for Windows and MAC)

Pixologic, Inc., maker of the Award-Winning ZBrush software is
pleased to announce the latest release of Sculptris (for Windows
and MAC).

For the past 10 years Pixologic has been recognized for its
ground-breaking innovation, 'cool' creativity and tools that are as
user friendly as they are powerful and natural-feeling. These tools
enable artists in many industries to open new vistas of possibility
with their skills and imagination.

The development and latest release of Sculptris is consistent
with the Pixologic ethos and spirit to help artists both shine at
and enjoy creating art -- intuitively, without having to worry
about technical barriers!

3D Sculpting and Painting Become Easy with Sculptris

Sculptris is an elegant and simple 3D modeling solution,
offering artists a platform to harness their imagination and create
3D sculpts in a way that is unique to the digital world.

Tomas Pettersson, the bright young programmer and brainchild
behind Sculptris commented: "I trust that, with this version,
Sculptris will be more accessible for all people on both PC's and
Mac's. Everyone should be able to sculpt!"

Sculptris introduces a dynamic tessellation system, giving its
user the capability to sculpt or paint freely on any part of the
surface without having to worry about underlining geometry. With
Sculptris, triangles are automatically added as needed, and only to
the areas where a stroke has been applied to the surface.

Users can do just about anything that's possible with real clay.
For example, they can pull, twist and pinch the surface, easily
adding volume as needed without the rigorous attention to
underlying structure that is typically associated with 3D modeling
programs.

Pixologic envisions Sculptris as an entry level 'eye opener' for
a new generation of artists wishing to explore 3D sculpting and
digital creation. Fun to use, it's also a truly effective tool that
can be embraced by hobbyists and professional artists, alike.

For those wishing to explore further, Sculptris is seen as a
perfect ground level upon which to build one's skills while
advancing to the substantial 'world of ZBrush'.

GoZ

With the new GoZ integration in Sculptris, artists can now
seamlessly move their creations between Sculptris and ZBrush with
the click of a button.

Navigational Controls

The navigation controls in Sculptris have been enhanced from
earlier releases of the software and are now similar to those in
ZBrush. This makes it effortless to go between the two applications
while also helping Sculptris to serve as a stepping stone toward
mastery of ZBrush.

Availability

Experienced Sculptris users and first timers alike are
encouraged to try out the new release, have fun playing with it
and, most importantly, make great artwork. All are invited to share
their creations in the Sculptris forum at ZBrushCentral. The forum provides a common ground for
Sculptris artists to share and communicate with other Sculptris
users, as well

Hello Everyone, For those of you who do not know about Sculptris is was purchased by Pixologic, inc a while ago however it has been around for a while. Less powerful than Zbrush however it may be used to make characters, morphs and just about anything you can imagine. This is a free and very powerful application that I highly recommend. Best wishes to all.
